Worm harness

[Hoytman86]

I will also say that I rarely ever didn't have a number 3 or 4 hammered gold Indiana blade on. Again preference. Wouldn't get into all the fancy colors out there. Yes they work but day in and day out a standard gold or copper will keep up with any custom color. Make sure you pay attention where in the water column your catching. Cast and do counting method. Cast 1000 1002 ect you catch a fish at a 8 count repeat. Dont be afraid to try different counts even a "splash and go" cast and retrieve right away. Fishing "the swing" if your boat drifts sideways cast straight off the back. As the boat drifts your lure will swing and just as it changes directions or starts coming up a lot of strikes happen.

I second the advice about gold blades. I always have them in the water when using harnesses and they always catch fish and usually out catch any other color. I preferred hammered gold, Colorado blades for casting and Colorado or willow blades for trolling. I use 2 no 1 octopus hooks on mine.

I have bought those custom painted blades at fisherman's wharf in downtown Port Clinton.Bet they have a pretty good selection since last season was a better spoon bite.
